Paintball isn't all too expensive...granted its more sport-related than "I'm gonna pretend I'm in The **** in Nam" related but its still really fun. You can get a solid Tippman for around $200 or so and mod it up a bit and still have a good time....you don't have to get an $1,100 Angel or anything crazy like that. Stick with field ball on open events (vice speed ball with teams/leagues) and you don't need to spend a bunch of money.

Psh, don't want to tear your uniform?! I hate that ****. If it were my Army/Marines, I would declare that every uniform must have at least one grass stain and one tear. And once a week you have to get someone else's blood on it.

Reservists are generally more concerned with dress and deportment rather than legitimate soldiering.

You are not free whose liberty is won by the rigour of other, more righteous souls. Your are merely protected. Your freedom is parasitic, you suck the honourable man dry and offer nothing in return. You who have enjoyed freedom, who have done nothing to earn it

GuilySpark, I don't doubt it. But those individuals don't remain in the Reserves for long (and I somehow can't see them returning after their contract expires). I'm referring to the class B perma reservist - wear the uniform all day running **** errands, acting all hardcore (until the annual fitness test comes around), taking retarded pride in their polished boots and harping on people who don't spend 4h on their boots a day; yet, all while having the comfort of saying no to deployment.
